Personal profile
Research interests
I am a behavioural science researcher with an interest in the psychology of communication, particularly how people process social and linguistic information when making decisions. My background is in experimental psychology. I am also an advocate for better science communication.
I am part of the Bristol JITSUVAX team, which investigates vaccine confidence among healthcare professionals and the development of jiu-jitsu interventions against misinformation to be used in healthcare professional training.
